BACKGROUND: Dental pulp inflammation is a very complex process due to its situation in low compliance (confined environment) surrounded by mineralized dentin. Mast cells are one of the mediators of inflammation. Immunohistochemical localization of mast cells by anti-tryptase antibodies in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections has been shown to be highly specific. The aim of the present study is to quantify the mast cells in inflamed and noninflamed human pulp tissue using immunohistochemical analysis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Immunohistochemical localization of mast cells by anti-tryptase antibody was done in 15 inflamed and 15 noninflamed formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded pulp tissue. A number of mast cell per five high-power fields were performed using three observers and the mean was calculated. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test.
RESULTS: The results of the present study showed an increased number of mast cells in inflamed pulp in comparison with noninflamed pulp.
CONCLUSION: Thus, the presence of mast cells in pulp inflammation could be used as a diagnostic marker. It can also aid in the management of pulpitis as mast cell stabilizers and antihistaminic agents could be used to control pulpal pain and inflammation.
